I have heard it said that you can make it about 40 days without food, four days without water, and about 4 minutes without air; but you can’t live one second without HOPE.
The Definition of “HOPE” says that it is a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen.
Even if things are really bad, most humans have ‘hope’ that things will get better. The ultimate expression of hopelessness is suicide. I am not saying that everyone is suicidal. I am saying that many people you are around keep hoping things will get better and they need to see the hope of Christ in you.
I believe we are all born with a sense to know our Creator. I believe God placed it in our DNA. I believe you and I were born to know God. When we connect with Him though a relationship with Jesus Christ it is amazing how our mind changes and we become new creations in Christ. (2 Corinthians 5:17). We have a hope and peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). It is hard to explain, but we want everyone to experience it.
Can you imagine the hopelessness you would feel if you were not a follower of Christ? What if you did not have that peace and hope? You are around people at school that need to hear about the HOPE inside of you. Look at this school year as an opportunity to take the HOPE of Christ to every student.
